There's no doubt that Sergio Ramos is one of the best defenders on the planet but the problem is that he's also one of the best shithouses too and he put those tactics to use tonight against Juventus.
In the past two Champions League finals that Real Madrid have won, last season and in 2014, Ramos made the headlines for all the right reasons.

In 2014 he scored the most important goal of the game, equalising in the 93rd minute to take the game into extra time when all looked loss for Los Blancos.
Last year Ramos opened the scoring early on before Atletico Madrid took the match to penalties where the captain then scored in the shoot-out.

However this year there were no goals for the Spaniard and instead he will make the headlines for his shithouse tactics to get an opposition player sent-off.
With the game already at 3-1 and Juan Cuadrado on a yellow card the Juve player ran past Ramos for a throw in and barely nudged him which took Real's captain to the floor:
